On #NationalDogDay weโre honoring dogs that selflessly save lives, keep us safe, and bring us love and comfort. Dogs put their lives on the line every day to protect our families and homes, their law enforcement partner, their blind companion, the disabled, and victims of accidents and tragedy. So today we say THANK YOU to all the dogs out there! โฅ๐ถ๐๐ฉ๐โ๐ฆบโฅ
Pets can be curious, and sometimes that leads to swallowing indigestible objects which can result in a bowel or gastrointestinal obstruction.
The treatment for bowel obstruction can vary and depends on the severity of the condition. In some cases, a blockage may pass on its own. In others, surgery may be required.
Obstructions can be very serious and may even result in death, so it is important to come to Uintah if you discover or suspect your pet swallowed something indigestible. We are open after hours from 12pm - 12am for pet emergencies.
Happy Hug Your Cat Day! ๐ฑ Did you know that there are scientifically-proven health benefits to cat ownership?
โฃ Cat owners have a lowered risk of heart disease and stroke due to the relaxing effects felines have on their humans which minimizes stress and lowers blood pressure.
โฃ A cat's purr creates vibrations at a frequency of 20-140 HZ, and studies have shown that frequencies in the 18-35 HZ range have a positive effect on human joint mobility after injury.
โฃ If you spend 15-30 minutes a day petting or playing with your cat it can boost your mood! A result due to a rise in serotonin and a decrease in cortisol.
Showing your cat love and affection will let them know you care for them too - so give your cat extra lovin' today and give them a hug!
It's #NationalPetDay! ๐๐๐๐นโค It's basically National Pet Day every day but we are just so lucky to have the joy, support, and connection pets bring to our lives - let's celebrate them a little extra today! โฅ
